Nijhum Dwip is a small, isolated island in the Bay of Bengal. The inhabitants grow coconuts and catch fish. The accompanying table shows the maximum annual output combinations of coconuts and fish that can be produced. Obviously, given their limited resources and available technology, as they use more of their resources for coconut production, there are fewer resources available for catching fish.

Suppose an economyuses two resorces (labor and capital) to produce two goods (wheat and cloth). Captial is relativley more useful in prducing cloth, and labor ir relativley more useful in prducing wheat. If the supply of cpatial falls by 10% and the suppy of labor increases by 10%, how will the PPF for wheat and cloth change?
3. Country A and Country B are two countries that each produce t-shirts (T) and sneakers (S). From its available resources and technology Country A can produce 100 t-shirts and 0 sneakers or 0 tshirts and 200 sneakers or any combination of t-shirts and sneakers that sits on Country A’s linear PPF. From its available resources and technology Country B can produce 50 t-shirts and 0 sneaker or 0 t-shirt and 50 sneakers or any combination of t-shirts and sneakers that sits on Country B’s linear PPF. a. On two separate graphs draw the PPF for Country A and Country B. Measure t-shirts on the vertical axis and sneakers on the horizontal axis. b. Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the PPF for Country A. c. Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the PPF for Country B
a] Draw a production possibilities curve (PP1). Label the horizontal axis Tools and the vertical axis Grain. Now, assume the development of a new technology that can be used only in the tool industry, and that it increases tool output by 50 percent. 6. Assume that the economy of Finhorn faces the following production possibilities: QUANTITIES PER YEAR C D b) Draw a new production possibilities curve (PP2) that reflects this new technology. A 25 40 50 Grain c) If Finhorn produced 12 units of tools per year, how many units of grain could be produced after the introduction of the new technology? 12 8 4. Tools
Bob remains in college for his senior year so he can graduate instead of starting his business one year early. Bob's opportunity cost of remaining in college is O the amount paid for tuition and books plus the amount he would have earned by starting his business. O the amount he paid for tuition and books during the year. O the amount he would have earned by starting his business O the amount paid for tuition, books, food, and housing during the year. « Previous Next » ASUS 47 EGO f9 5 7 R CO

1. PPF and CPF Josel's PPF is defined by Qosel F Josel and Kayla can produce food and luxury goods. Kayla 12-3Qosel and Kayla's PPF is defined by Qa 12 - 3Q Kayla Suppose that Josel and Kayla trade with each other (i.e., no outside merchants). Kayla and Josel agree to trade under the following conditions: 1) the terms of trade are 1 unit of food in exchange for 1 unit of luxury goods; 2) each specializes according to his/her comparative advantage; and 3) Kayla consumes 3 units of the good she produces. (a) = Sketch on two different graphs (one for Josel and one for Kayla) the individual PPFs, the individual CPFs, and indicate the individual points of pro- duction and the individual points of consumption. Clearly label your graphs (i.e., indicate values for slopes, intercepts, points of production, and points of consump- tion).
1. Suppose that the country of Greece has only one factor of production, labour, and can produce at most 1500 units of olives and at most 6000 units of cheese. (a) Draw the PPF of Greece, with cheese on the vertical axis. What is the oppor- tunity cost of producing cheese? What must be the relative price of olives for Greece to specialise in producing olives? To produce both goods? Pc
